Jobs

TIP

During this tutorial you'll learn how to manage Jobs on Kubernetes.

• Level: beginner
• Requirements: none
• Previous Tutorials: pods
• Can run on Cluster: any
• Can run on Namespace: any
• Images used: hello-world

A Job creates one or more Pods and ensures that a specified number of them successfully terminate. As pods successfully complete, the Job tracks the successful completions. When a specified number of successful completions is reached, the task (ie, Job) is complete. Deleting a Job will clean up the Pods it created.

Hello World

• Create Job
  • Name: hello-world
  • Image: hello-world

Let's run a simple Job with image hello-world which prints out a message on screen and exits.

Cleanup

Remember to delete the following resources after you finish this tutorial:

• on active namespace:
  • jobs/hello-world
